Muslim doctor whose Nebraska clinic infected dozens with hepatitis, killing some, blames "anti-Muslim sentiment," applies for reinstatement

Whenever Islamic supremacists are caught doing something evil, they blame “Islamophobia” — which ought to be enough in itself to show the hollowness and propagandistic agenda of the entire “Islamophobia” narrative.

“Unsanitary practices in the Fremont clinic led to hepatitis C
infections in at least 99 patients, several of whom died.” But it was
all “Islamophobia,” don’t you see? After fleeing the country to avoid
prosecution, “in Pakistan, Javed became a public health official and
reportedly blamed the situation in Nebraska on anti-Muslim sentiment.”

Islamic Supremacist Chutzpah Alert: “Doc whose Fremont clinic
infected patients with hepatitis seeks N.Y. license to practice,” by
Rick Ruggles for the Omaha World-Herald, December 27 (thanks to LJ):

Dr. Tahir Ali Javed, whose Fremont cancer clinic infected
dozens of patients with hepatitis a little more than a decade ago, has
applied for reinstatement of his medical license in New York.

Javed, 47, fled to his native Pakistan 10 years ago, when the
severity of the hepatitis outbreak became known. His medical license in
Nebraska was revoked. He surrendered his New York license.

In Pakistan, Javed became a public health official and reportedly blamed the situation in Nebraska on anti-Muslim sentiment.

Unsanitary practices in the Fremont clinic led to hepatitis C infections in at least 99 patients, several of whom died.

A Fremont-based group called the HONOReform Foundation grew out of
the tragedy. It promotes sanitary practices in health care settings. The
“One and Only” campaign that it advocates seeks to educate nurses,
doctors and others of the importance of using syringes and needles only
once.

Javed could not be reached for comment. His Omaha attorney, Michael D. Jones, said he hadn’t had contact with Javed in years.

Antonia Valentine of the New York State Education Department, which
rules on restoration of medical licenses, confirmed that Javed has
applied for reinstatement.

Valentine said in an email that the application will be investigated
and referred to two committees before the New York Board of Regents
rules on it. It’s unclear when the ruling will be issued. Valentine
declined to provide further information.

Steve Langan, executive director of HONOReform, said, “Sick people were injured, some of them died, and no justice has been done.”

The Nebraska Attorney General’s Office pursued the revocation of Javed’s medical license in 2003. It accused him of unprofessional conduct and gross negligence for allowing staffers to reuse syringes,
which contaminated large bags of saline with hepatitis. The saline was
used to clean out implanted devices that administer chemotherapy and
other medications to cancer patients, infecting patients with hepatitis
in the process.

The allegations said Javed had been warned multiple times that his
office used unsanitary practices in administering the drugs and
continued to allow it.

The Attorney General’s Office also accused him of exploiting a patient to conduct a sexual relationship with her.
The attorney general alleged that Javed, a cancer specialist, gave the
woman a false diagnosis and told her not to seek treatment elsewhere
because other providers would inform her insurance company and she
wouldn’t be able to get insurance again.

Documents indicate that Javed admitted to little. The exploitation
accusations were dismissed. Javed chose not to contest the case against
him and agreed to a settlement in which his Nebraska medical license was
revoked in September 2003.

New York records show that Javed surrendered his medical license in
that state in 2004, after he chose not to contest the Nebraska
allegations.

Travis Bennington, a Fremont attorney who co-wrote a book on the case with one of the victims, Evelyn McKnight, said Javed fled to his native Pakistan before any criminal charges could be filed….
